I have a few things I need to get out. Each not related to the other.

Overreaction and obsession:
I overreact to a lot of things. And I'm more sensitive to things than normal people are. A person can give me a simple raising of the eyebrow and I'll go off because of it. Or someone will say something and I get real emotional about something that wasn't even supposed to mean anything.

Just months ago, I was supposed to do a presentation in front of one of my classes. Someone said something, I thought I heard snickering and I went totally berserk on the whole class. I was depressed for several weeks after that. My grades started dropping, I didn't hand in any of my assignments and I almost failed a few classes.

I get obsessed with things easily. Whether it be interests or projects or tasks. Sometimes to the point where I'm constantly bothering people to jump in on the bandwagon and then get depressed or angry if they are holding me back on the things I want to do. Only to drop all of everything unfinished when nothing's turning out the way I want.

Sometimes I'll get very obsessed with myself. I'll pride myself on how talented I am, how interesting I am, how intellectual I am. I sound very conceited to others and if anyone commented on it, I'll get a big head about it. And when I finally do realize how I sound, I get very emotional and depressed and I hate myself.

Memory Problems

Sometimes I forget things.
A lot of the times I forget things.
I forget things very quickly sometimes, it seems I do it a lot when I am excited and having fun. And it causes problems for others.
A few weeks ago, I was playing a game with my friend and her group she likes to do rounds with. (That Draw My Thing App on Facebook.)
I apparently said something funny, or drew something, or something like that. A few seconds later, my friend commented on it. And I didn't know what she was talking about! All I could respond was "It wasn't even my turn yet." or "I didn't draw that. I don't remember drawing that word." It was completely blank in my mind, and I was the only one who couldn't recall it!
It bothered me real bad, and to this day I am regretting forgetting and I am dwelling on it.

That caused another overreaction episode, along with a bit of paranoia. I convinced myself that I didn't remember because it never happened. And everyone was using it to make fun of me. I got really angry and explosive.

Do you suffer from anxiety? Are you being treated for it?

Thanks for sharing that Xambgii!! Wish I could make it better for you!

Do you have a therapist to share this with? There may be a reason for this that you may be able to work through.

No, I don't suffer from anxiety. I never have. I've suffered from a lot of depression ever since I was little.

And thank you, Missbelle

And no, I don't have a therapist.
